Genius or insanity? Exec did all his work on Galaxy Note for a year

Could you do all of your work on a smartphone? If your name is Benjamin Robbins and you're the cofounder of software consulting firm Palador, the answer is an emphatic "yes."

Robbins decided to do everything on a Samsung Galaxy Note—the 5.3-inch smartphone paired with a stylus—for an entire year. And now, he says he can't imaging moving back to a PC as a primary work device.

"Humans are very much creatures of habit. I formed habits around mobility that I can't really imagine going away from," he said in an interview with IDG's CITEworld (that's "consumerization of IT in the enterprise"). "The first few weeks [of going mobile-only] were definitely tough, but everything's changing and moving at such a fast pace, the capabilities are expanding so fast, I can't imagine going back to a PC as my primary device."
